Perched on a mountainside with breathtaking views, this restored stone villa invites you to an extraordinary escape where adventure and luxury intertwine. Your journey begins with a scenic, bumpy drive up the hillside along an 800m road, accessible by any car, with secure parking available both at the bottom and next to the house.
Exclusively reserved for one group at a time, the villa and its gardens offer complete privacy, allowing you to immerse yourself fully in this serene retreat.
The three-story home seamlessly blends bohemian charm with modern comfort. The heart of the villa is a spacious family kitchen with a wood-burning stove, perfect for shared meals and gatherings, while the living room impresses with high ceilings, large windows, and a cozy fireplace. Each level features bedrooms and bathrooms meticulously decorated to create a warm and inviting atmosphere. There is four bathrooms for the five bedrooms.
Step outside into a Mediterranean paradise. Enclosed gardens protect the organic lemon grove and vegetable patches, while the landscaped pool area transforms into an outdoor living space with a fully equipped kitchen, dining area, and cinema screen. Beyond the garden walls, free-roaming chickens and sheep add a touch of pastoral charm.
More than just a stay, we offer a personalised experience where nature, relaxation, and the Mediterranean art de vivre come together. We can organise your entire stay, from private in-house yoga sessions and cooking classes to chef-prepared dinners, essential oil and natural cream workshops, and soothing massages.
From this mountain retreat, the treasures of the French Riviera are within easy reach. Explore Monaco’s Oceanographic Museum, wander through Menton’s central market, or visit charming Italian villages like Dolceaqua and Apricale. The coastal paths and cycling routes reveal spectacular Mediterranean vistas, while world-renowned restaurants in Nice, Monaco and Menton await your culinary indulgence.
For those seeking adventure, hiking trails start right from the house, and the region offers canyoning, via ferrata, and family-friendly boat excursions to discover the Riviera’s stunning coastline.
